Pinnacle Studio includes masking features that let you selectively edit one or more areas of a video clip or track. For example, you can make an area of a video clip transparent so that an underlying video clip shows through. You can apply effects to specified areas, allowing you to add a Black and White effect to a specific area, or color correct a specific area. You can also create a 2D mask panel that has 3D motion.

 

Motion tracking lets you apply a blur or element, such as text, to a moving object in a video, tracking the movement frame-by-frame. Some versions of Pinnacle Studio include Face detection that can be used for tracking and masking.
